Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, let's get to this training report, okay.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
In a New Wall Street Journal cover story, Billy Eilish
revealed that this song almost didn't make.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
It onto her album.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
It's just.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
Like a can't change.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
So she and her brother Phineas spent eleven months working
on Birds of a Feather, but she said multiple times,
I was like, we should cut this. The song went
on to win Billy three Grammy nominations for Record of
the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Solo Pop Performance.
It spent seven weeks at number one on eighteen forty
and has been on the chart for seventy two weeks

(00:46):
and it's actually going back on the countdown as we speak.
It's one of the biggest hits of the decade. So
to me, this is such a lesson in life because
people were always like expecting of like sad, moody songs
from her, and this one was like a little bit
of a pivot, and so her gut was saying, maybe
we should cut it, maybe we should cut it, but

(01:07):
she obviously kept it on there for a reason. And
so I feel like, just because things might not be
like what we used to do or things that we
used to go for or thing like things of our
past doesn't mean that we shouldn't bring them into our
future just because it's different.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
I think so. And as you go on, you have
different perspectives, points of viewer, influenced by different things, and
you can evolve, you can change.

Speaker 3 (01:32):

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
